Studio portrait of Yanko Draganov

Description

Full length shot of a man wearing a military uniform adorned with insignias of honour and a hat with a cockade. He is carrying a sword. He is standing between a chair and a small round wooden table with two books on it. A painted canvas backdrop is creating the illusion of the scene being set in nature.
